I'm considering upgrading my PC before prices really go up. Right now, I'm not having any issues playing games, but I expect that might change in the next year or two. I'm wondering if I should upgrade everything at once or just focus on replacing the GPU. Here are my current specs:
- Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 8-Core at 3600 MHz
- Motherboard: B450 TOMAHAWK MAX
- RAM: 16GB DDR4 at 3200MHz (Corsair Vengeance Pro)
- GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 10GB
- Power Supply: 850W CORSAIR RMx Series Gold Modular

I’d suggest starting with the CPU and RAM upgrades. You might be okay sticking with your GPU for now since the RTX 3080 is still quite capable!
Prices are already escalating quickly! If it were me, I'd keep my current setup unless you're really in need of an upgrade. I used to pay around $26 for RAM a while back, but now it's over $130!
Do you really think the GPU can hold up for a while?
